The Menace's message to fellow Chaser The Vixen about 'super team' that beat her

Chaser Darragh Ennis had a message for fellow Chaser Jenny Ryan this afternoon, when she came up against a 'super team'.

Jenny Ryan came up against a trio of great players and Darragh Ennis said that she 'had her work cut out' for her during The Chase competition.

The newest Chaser, also known as The Menace, tweeted thoughts on tonight’s episode from his Twitter account @bones_giles.

After contestants Eva and Emma managed to take back £7,000 each, The Menace called them 'clever women.'

He said: "Well, some clever women on #TheChase this afternoon!"

Darragh then followed up his tweet with another comment and message for fellow-Chaser Jenny Ryan, also known as The Vixen.

He added: “£14k for two players is really excellent. If Gary gets back this might be tough for Jen. #TheChase.”

And: “Nice final question for the chef and £20k for three players is a super team. Jen might have her work cut out here! #TheChase.”

The Menace predicted correctly as the team - Gary, Emma and Eva - managed to beat The Vixen and managed to outrun the Chaser.

The team managed to get 20 steps in the final chase and won with three steps remaining.

In the final chase there were five attempts to push back and the team executed three of them.

The three took home the prize of £20,000 between them, making it £6,666 each.

Bradley Walsh said: “Well played, brilliant, £20,000 smackers, absolutely sensational.”

He added: “Chaser, great match by the way great match.”

Jenny Ryan said: “Really well played team, by setting 20 you gave me just a little bit too much to do when I had a couple of mental arithmetic style questions in there.”

The Chase views congratulated the team on their win on Twitter, with one fan @Zonechase saying : "A very well-deserved victory for today's team! 20 is an excellent score, and executing 3/5 pushbacks put even more pressure on the Vixen."

Another @RealCameronMcUK said: "Very well played to the team tonight against The Vixen tonight on The Chase."

*The Chase continues at 5pm on ITV tomorrow
